DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nNextInput is a first mover and leader in the emergi
 ng force sensing market. While the company’s initial focus was on force 
 sensing components targeting Mobile 3D touch displays\, NextInput quickly 
 repositioned itself to displace mechanical buttons and capacitive touch in
  1-D and 2-D applications by providing comprehensive\, system-level soluti
 ons. Today\, NextInput has created multiple product lines and is on the fo
 refront of innovating disruptive new technologies targeting Human Machine 
 Interface markets.\n\nBiography:\n\nAli Foughi is a Silicon Valley executi
 ve with nearly thirty years of experience in semiconductors\, MEMS sensors
  and system design. Mr. Foughi is the CEO and co-Founder of NextInput\, a 
 market leader in force sensing solutions enabling the next generation of i
 ntuitive\, 1D/2D/3D HMI. Ali has taken NextInput from Seed Funding to reve
 nue and the company is currently in mass production.\n\nBefore joining Nex
 tInput\, Mr. Foughi was the Vice President of Marketing and Business Devel
 opment at InvenSense (NYSE: INVN) and VP &amp; GM at Maxim Integrated (NASDAQ:
  MXIM)\, leading mixed-signal business units with revenues of $300M.\n\nRo
